Purpose
The group's official website states that their purpose is to prepare the way for the coming of the English avatar, who is variously identified as The Hooded Man, Woden, HelgiH and Kalki.
"Woden's Folk was set up to prepare the way for the coming of The Hooded Man who is the Crowned and Conquering Son who will incarnate when the Hanged God is swallowed by the Wolf. This astronomical event will take place at the Winter Sunwend of Year 12 : Age of Ing (2012)."
Woden's Folk is a unique Wodenist Movement that rejects the old archetype of the Hanged God in favour of The Avenging Son, seeing this as the archetypal god-image for a new world-age which it calls the Age of Ing or Age of the Son ("Ing" means "son of"). It refers to this figure as Widar the Avenger, the Woodland Warrior, and connects him with The Hooded Man in the Robin of Sherwood television series.
In addition, the group opposes England's multiracial society.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:
“God sent children for another purpose than merely to keep up the race—to enlarge our hears; and to make us unselfish and full of kindly sympathies and affections; to give our souls higher aims; to call out all our faculties to extended enterprise and exertion; and to bring round our firesides bright faces, happy smiles, and loving, tender hearts.”
—Mary Botham Howitt (20th century)
“Along the journey we commonly forget its goal. Almost every vocation is chosen and entered upon as a means to a purpose but is ultimately continued as a final purpose in itself. Forgetting our objectives is the most frequent stupidity in which we indulge ourselves.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“... my one aim and concentrated purpose shall be and is to show that women can learn, can reason, can compete with men in the grand fields of literature and science ... that a woman can be a woman and a true one without having all her time engrossed by dress and society.”
—M. Carey Thomas (1857–1935)
